A dark night photograph of a large sculpted stone figure in profile against dense green foliage. The carved head wears a tall ornamental crown or headdress with a pointed upturned tip, and a thick rope-like necklace of beads or rudraksha-style bands hangs across the chest. The figure's shoulder and arm are visible at the lower right, and leaves fill the foreground. No people are visible; the statue is lit only by a faint spotlight.
